  1. This would be awesome to do, kind of like using 100-year old yeast when baking bread. Thou shall convert 15-year old data for gameplay in 2021.
  2. Ah, yeah I only have TEW2020 so maybe someone miraculously has the data for 16 and can convert and share the converted data!

  4. It’s inspired by the original NWA Domination scenario for EWR created by Adam Ryland himself (pre-CVerse). I think Adam released 2 versions and then a few years later iDOL released his version which was just so well polished, one of the best mods released for the game. Helped bring custom mods to a different level for sure. They are both based on the premise of WrestleMania turning into a huge bust and failure for the WWF, leading to the NWA surviving into the modern day.
  5. What’s the general consensus on how to handle it?
  6. Dipping my toes into this. Interested to hear what interest there is. iDOL has given me premission to use his 2004 Ruthless Aggression mod as a base for a conversion of his 2008 iDOM data from EWR. I will try to stick to the base data as much as possible, adding my own twists here and there. More info to soon follow...
  7. <blockquote style=”background-color:#FFFFFF;color:black;border-style:solid;border-width:4px;border-color:#000000;max-width:1000px;”> WCCW Championship Roll Call April 1985 NWA American Heavyweight Reigning Champion: Kerry Von Erich [5] (def. Gino Hernandez on 10/29/1984 in Ft. Worth, TX) Originally established as the NWA United States Heavyweight title in 1967, by patriarch of the title, Fritz Von Erich, the American Heavyweight title as it quickly became called by 1968 is usually thought of as the premier singles title in the Texas territory. Fritz Von Erich can be closest associated with the title, having won it twenty times in his in-ring career. Memorable bouts for Fritz involving the American Heavyweight title include the likes of: Bruiser Brody, Johnny Valentine, Ox Baker, Baron Von Rasche, The Great Kabuki, and many others. By 1978, a new generation of Von Erichs were crowned title holders, first by Kevin Von Erich, who won the title three times between ‘78 and 1980, followed by Kerry Von Erich earning his first title win at the end of 1980, substituting in for his injured brother to face Gino Hernandez after the belt was held up following a showdown between Gino and Kevin earlier that year. Fritz Von Erich won the title one last time in June of 1982, beating champion King Kong Bundy in his retirement match, and immediately vacating. A week later, Bundy was awarded the belt, leading to Kevin Von Erich winning it off of him in September. Kevin feuded with Terry Gordy briefly in late 1982, before the title was held up after a match against Jimmy Garvin in July of 1983. Their rematch just a week later saw Garvin earn the title, after which “Gorgeous” Jimmy Garvin made himself one of the biggest heels in World Class only second to the Freebirds throughout all of 1983 and 1984, during which his famous feud with “The Gentleman” Chris Adams took place. Gino Hernandez would eventually get his hands back on the title 4 years since his last run, dropping it to Mike Von Erich in a shocking loss, only to win it back a month later. Gino then lost to Kerry Von Erich a month after that in October of 1984, and “The Modern Day Warrior” has been the American Heavyweight champion for the past five months, one of the longest championship runs in recent memory for the belt. NWA Texas Heavyweight Reigning Champion: Gino Hernandez [4] (def. David Von Erich on 03/13/1984 in San Antonio, TX) Touting a longer lineage than the aforementioned singles title, the NWA Texas Heavyweight title has been around since its vague establishment in the 1930s, making it one of the oldest championships in the sport of professional wrestling today. Throughout many different eras of American history, the Texas title has remained a staple of Texas professional wrestling and is typically only defended in the borders of the Lone Star state. Ed McLemore’s Southwest Sports carried the title from the 1930s into the 1960s, operating shows in the Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, and San Antonio areas of Texas. After McLemore’s death, when Fritz Von Erich took over the territory, he would continue to highlight the Texas Heavyweight title as a preliminary centerpoint of his booking. David Von Erich’s first title win over Bruiser Brody in 1978 kickstarted a new era for the Texas title, as he would then begin a long two year feud with Gino Hernandez throughout 1978 and 1980 as the two battled over the belt. After the two traded the belt back and forth six-times in three years, David fell out of the title scene in 1981 as wrestlers like Killer Tim Brooks, Al Madril, Jose Lothario, and Bill Irwin al have reigns at very points in time. David would win the title again for a fifth time in 1982, beating Bill Irwin, eventually losing to Jimmy Garvin six months later in MArch of 1983. Garvin and David would run a program all throughout 1983 in which David won the belt another three times following consecutive title belt hold ups, eventually giving way to Gino Hernandez in March of 1984 before departing for Tokyo. Throughout 1984, Gino has remained champion, reaching the one-year mark of his reign in March of 1985, making this reign one of the most dominant in recent Texas Heavyweight championship history. NWA American Tag Team Reigning Champion: The Midnight Express (def. The Fantastics on 2/27/1985 in Dallas, TX) Similar to the original NWA American Heavyweight title, the tag titles were originally established as the NWA United States Tag Team titles in 1966, eventually changing over to their more well-known American Tag Team title recognition in 1968. And similar to the singles belt, Fritz Von Erich played an important role in the late 1960’s, establishing the tag title in his territory alongside the likes of Waldo Von Erich, Billy Red Lyons, Gary Hart, and many others. The title reached a period of inactivity in 1974, until Kevin Von Erich and David Von Erich won the titles against Dory Funk Jr. and Terry Funk in 1978, the first time the belt was fought for since it’s inactivity. Unlike other titles, however, the Von Erich family name is not incredibly frequent on the title history list since 1978, instead owed to many other successful tag team combinations such as Jose Lothario and Tiger Conway Jr., Mr. Hito and Mr. Sakurada, and Gino Hernandez featured with different assortments of partners. In 1982, the Fabulous Freebirds: Terry Gordy and Michael Hayes, won the belts in late 1982, and eventually lost in the summer of 1983 to Kerry Von Erich and Bruiser Brody in a much-anticipated match-up featuring the return of Brody to the territory. Unfortunately, an injury to Brody forced a them to vacate the belt, leading to a tournament in Detroit during which Roddy Piper and Bulldog Brower won the belts, only to lose it to the Super Destroyers a few nights later in Indianapolis. Returning back to Texas as the champions, the Super Destroyers began what can now be considered perhaps the most dominant few years in the title’s long history, highlighted by the famous reveal of the masked Super Destroyers to really be Bill and Scott Irwin in 1984 after losing to the combination of Iceman King Parsons and Buck Zumhofe. Since 1983, the Irwin Brothers have become four-time tag team champions, eventually losing to the Fantastics in October of 1984, leading to a brief hiatus from the Texas territory. The Fantastics,, earning their first tag title win in that match, have since become the most popular true tag team in the region, and were on their way to establishing themselves as the most dominant tag team in the region before losing to The Midnight Express in February of 1985 thanks to interference by their manager’s newest surprise client, One Man Gang! Unfortunately for the Midnights, however, the Long Riders (as they became to call themselves), Bill and Scott Irwin, are back in Texas with tag team gold on their minds and a chance to continue their historic run. NWA Texas Brass Knuckles Reigning Champion: Gino Hernandez (def. Jose Lothario on 6/4/1984 in Ft. Worth, TX) The Brass Knuckles title was specifically established for famous brawler Bull Curry in 1953, making it one of professional wrestlings oldest active belts. Curry was known for intense brawls that shocked the audience with it’s raw action, and he would go on to win the belt an incredible 27-times, with his final victory coming in 1969. As you can imagine, he became synonymous with the Brass Knuckles title, working the territory one an incredibly consistent basis defending the title all throughout the fifties and sixties. Following Bull Curry’s incredible 15-year run as champion, other stars like Jose Lothario, Blackjack Lanza, and even Fritz Von Erich frequently won the title, until Bruiser Brody first earned a reign in 1977 after defeating Big John in Houston. Brody would continue to win and lose the title throughout 1978, and 1980, with his last reign ending in December of 1980 after losing to Bugsy McGraw in the same city he first won the belt. Maniac Marc Lewin was a frequent foe for Bruiser, eventually winning his eighth title reign in 1980 as well. Since the early 1980’s, however, the belt’s frequency in use has declined slightly, but has featured champions such as the Great Kabuki, Terry Gordy, Chris Adams, and most recently Gino Hernandez, who beat Jose Lothario to win the title in June of 1984. For all intents and purposes, the Brass Knuckles title has always been known as the “hardcore title”, and frequently features bloody brawls and heavily officiated bouts. WCCW Television Reigning Champion: One Man Gang (def. Kerry Von Erich on 3/12/1985 in Dallas, TX) The Television title was established in 1982, adding another singles belt to the mix, mainly to be defended during television programming. The Spoiler, don Jardine, was the first champion, earning it in a battle royal in Ft. Worth, TX. Since then, many famous names in World Class have won the title, including Bill Irwin, Al Madril, the Great Kabuki, Iceman King Parsons, Chris Adams, Jimmy Garvin, Scott Irwin, and many more. In 1984, Kevin Von Erich was given his first reign with the belt after a DQ win over Killer Khan, but declined the title pending a rematch a week later. Their rematch would then end in a double DQ, leading to both wrestlers being barred from competing for the title ever again. Chris Adams began his second reign soon after that, losing to Jake Roberts in August of 1984, eventually winning it back a month later. Adams would then lose to Kerry Von Erich in January of 1985, who would then quickly lose the belt to One Man Gang in March of 1985. NWA World 6-Man Tag Team Reigning Champion: Kerry, Kevin, and Mike Von Erich (def. Chris Adams, Gino Hernandez, and Jake Roberts on 12/31/1984 in Ft. Worth, TX) The six-man title was specifically established in 1982 to help flame the fire that was the Von Erichs and Freebirds feud. The Freebirds first earned the titles in December of 1982, giving them a prop to instantly solidify themselves as a big deal. They would then go on to trade the title multiple times with the Von Erich family, which featured multiple arrangements of family members, a stunning seven-times in just three years. The title is synonymous with the Von Erich and Freebird rivalry, and since the Freebird Buddy Roberts and Michael Hayes have since departed the territory, the Von Erich combination of Kevin, Kerry and Mike have remained champions, only losing it briefly in October of 1984 to the combination of Gino Hernandez, Chris Adams, and Jake Roberts. </blockquote>
  8. I wonder if it would be easier to nominate the middle two weeks of the month, and then have people vote the last week of the month so the winner is determined at the start of the month after.

  11. <blockquote style=”background-color:#FFFFFF;color:black;border-style:solid;border-width:4px;border-color:#000000;max-width:1000px;”> WCCW Heels, April 1985 “Gorgeous” Gino Hernandez The “Handsome Halfbreed” from uppity Highland Park, TX, Gino Hernandez has been a household name in the Dallas area since the early 80’s. Hernandez was one of the first big rivals for David Von Erich, as the two competed over the NWA Texas Heavyweight title early in their careers. While David represented morale, wholesome values, Gino was the walking antithesis. For Gino, the only things that matter to him are more money, faster cars, hotter women, and perhaps if you know him more personally, a good time… That’s not to say Gino is some slouch in the ring, in fact, it’s quite the opposite. Gino is also as respected as a wrestler as the Von Erich boys, and will stop at almost nothing to make sure even more respect is earned. But Gino is perhaps even more known for his promos out of the ring, where his mouth moves quick and his words silky slick, some comparing him to the great Ric Flair. Returning to the territory in 1984, Gino immediately linked up with Chris Adams to form “The Dynamic Duo”. The two have become perhaps the two most despised men in Texas today, known for collectively hitting the ring to George Thorogood’s “Bad to the Bone”. They’ve found themselves butting heads with the Von Erich family, and forming an alliance with Jake Roberts as well. By 1985, Gino was once again the Texas Heavyweight champion, and is now the target of the returning David Von Erich as the two once again spark their feud from years ago. Gino’s plan was to spoil David’s “Texas Homecoming”, where David’s first return to the World Class ring since early 1984 was to be celebrated with family, friends, flowers, and hugs. After successfully turning his return into a chaotic scene at the January Wrestling Star Wars event, Gino held off David all throughout February, using the help of his tag team partner Chris Adams to escape potential defeat at the big February supercard. In March, David (alongside Kerry) challenged Gino and Jake Roberts to a “tag team ultimatum match”, where David vowed to never challenge for the title again if he and his brother were to lose. Unfortunately, the power of the famous Von Erich Iron Claw was too much for Gino to handle anymore, submitting to lose the match and open up another opportunity for David to reclaim “his title”. Now, the two are on a collision course for another showdown. Can Gino continue fighting off David Von Erich, or will he eventually slip up and face defeat a final time? “The Gentleman” Chris Adams The other half of the Dynamic Duo, Chris Adams is an English-native imported to Texas where he is considered an international celebrity to the Dallas-faithful. When Adams first got his start in the territory, he became one of the biggest babyface stars in the promotion, only next to the Von Erichs. His first big moment came when he beat Jimmy Garvin in July of 1984 in a “Loser Leaves Town” match. In August, however, he would betray the Von Erichs and the fans by aligning himself with manager Gary Hart, turning heel in pursuit of title gold. This led to a program against Kevin Von Erich, highlighted by brutal wooden chair shots over the head, which led to the fans shouting ”Benedict Adams!” and ”traitor!” at every show. Adams got revenge in February of 1985, when he injured Kevin’s ankle thanks to help from Hercules Hernandez. But the latter would eventually sign on with Adams’ manager, Gary Hart, rubbing “The Gentleman” the wrong way. Despite Adams and Hart apparently trying to “work things out”, he would dump Hart as his manager in March of 1985, leading to a showdown against his new client, Hernandez, at the March Star Wars event. After Adams secured the victory, a familiar face entered the scene: Kevin Von Erich! Now, Chris Adams finds himself left aligned with Gino Hernandez and Jake Roberts, and now has enemies on two sides between the Von Erichs, and now Hercules and Hart. Can Adams survive a war on two fronts? Or has he bitten off more than he can chew? Jake “The Snake” Roberts Jake Roberts is perhaps the most misunderstood man in Texas wrestling today. If you ask Jake, he will tell you he is a kind man, with a simple soul and would never harm a fly. Ask any one of the fans at the Dallas Sportatorium every week, and they’ll tell you Jake Roberts is a cheat, a liar, and maybe psychotic. In late 1984 Roberts joined forces with Gino Hernandez and Chris Adams, but his world changed at the very beginning of 1985 when Roberts revealed he had discovered a briefcase, enclosed with supposedly $250,000, meant for him when he destroys the Von Erich family. When Roberts revealed his, no one believed it, but week-after-week Roberts obsessively brought this briefcase to the ring, and held onto it as if his life depended on it. Roberts has become relentless in his pursuit to understand where the briefcase came from, who planted it for him, and what he needs to do to get his two-hundred and fifty thousand dollars. The kicker? According to Roberts and company, the briefcase is impossible to open without the key, “the most indestructible briefcase ever seen”, according to Gary Hart. Perhaps that’s why Hart has become so interested in the briefcase, first claiming he was the one who planted it for Roberts. This earned him an attack from the latter, who ran the fake key down Gary’s head, leaving a scar for life! But perhaps Hart has gotten his revenge, when his new client, Hercules Hernandez, made off with Jake’s briefcase at the most recent Star Wars event in March. This has left Jake with no briefcase, and certainly without any peace of mind. Now, Jake is likely determined to get his briefcase back from Gary Hart, and continue his ultimate quest of destroying the Von Erichs for the sweetest pay day he’ll ever see in his life! "Playboy/The Manager of Champions" Gary Hart Gary Hart has almost become synonymous with World Class Championship Wrestling. As a manager, Hart joined forces with Arman Hussein to form The Stable of H. & H. Ltd, a dastardly villian stable that roamed the territory in the early 80's. Hart is also well known as the manager of The Great Kabuki, the greatest foreign foe in Texas wrestling history, with Hart by Kabuki's side during legendary bouts with the Von Erichs, including against Fritz. Recently, Hart became manager of Chris Adams, as Hart has worked tirelessly to make Adams a future World title contender. Adams, under the Hart, went on to win the NWA American Heavyweight and WCCW Television titles, but a World title shot has still eluded him. Hart got himself involved in the Jake Roberts/mystery briefcase situation, claiming he was the one that planted the briefcase and had the key all along! That key he held, well, it didn't open the briefcase, but did open a wound on the head of Gary Hart thanks to psychotic efforts of Jake Roberts! While Hart's lies about his role with the infamous briefcase caused issued with his client, Chris Adms, their relationship became even more strained following the reveal that Hart was going to manage Hercules Hernandez. This became the final straw for the Adams/Hart relationship, with Adams dumping Gary Hart in front of a live audience on WCCW Championship Sports in March! This led to a showdown between Hercules and Adams at the March Star Wars event, but although Hart and his client Hercules lost that affair, they may have walked out of the show the real winners afterall when Jake Roberts' briefcase fell into their hands... “Macho Man” Randy Savage One of the most impressive newcomers to the Texas wrestling territory, Randy Savage is the son of Angelo Poffo, and has always been considered an outcast in the professional wrestling industry. Not only because his father was the head of outlaw promotion, ICW, but Savage’s personality maybe even too big for the big screen. Savage’s in-ring style may even be considered outlaw, in some regard, having shown incredible work rate early in his career and putting many of his opponents to shame in terms of shere technical ability and in-ring prowess. Having got his start in the NWA in Memphis, Savage has now tested his talents in Texas and has done quite well so far. While many of his victories may be through doubtful means, it’s hard to question when Savage’s arm is raised due to his typical showings in the ring that make every match feel winnable. Since joining at the start of the year, Savage has made a solid impact in the ring so far, and has even begun referring to himself as “The Macho Man”, a moniker he’s seemed to have come up with himself. One thing has been made clear so far, Randy is determined to prove himself to be not only the best wrestler in Texas, but the entire world! Hercules Hernandez In just a few short appearances, Hercules Hernandez has become one of the most hated men in the World Class territory, no small part to his new manager, Gary Hart. Hernandez is a powering figure, with a great physique and good movement in the ring. While this offensive arsenal is a bit limited, his charisma is not. Hernandez paid his dues in Mid-South Wrestling, before joining World Class in early 1985. While his debut was subtle at best, Hernandez emerged as a new face to reckon with when he joined forces with Gary Hart. Unfortunately for Hart, this would lead to grievances with his other client at the time, Chris Adams, but not before Adams and Hercules injured the ankle of Kevin Von Erich on a late February edition of WCCW Championship Sports. Heading into March, however, as Adams and Hart broke apart, Hercules stood by his new manager's side and has now taken up issue with Adams. The return of Kevin Von Erich at the March Star Wars event could spell trouble for Hercules, but perhaps he can find solace in having recovered the infamous briefcase from Jake Roberts and may now soon be a quarter of a million dollars richer... The Midnight Express The tag team of “Beautiful” Bobby Eaton and “Loverboy” Dennis Condrey has become one of the most hated duos in Texas wrestling history, no small part played by their manager, Jim Cornette. The young and brash Cornette will be the first to tell you how great the Midnights are, and how they are the greatest team in wrestling history. Whether that’s the case or not, is yet to be determined, however the Midnight Express helped their case when they effectively stole the NWA American Tag Team titles from the former champions, the Fantastics. Entering March of 1985, The Midnight Express are now not only a very talented and experienced tag team, but also the tag champs. But how will they fair now that the collective tag team targets are now on their backs, and they find themselves walking as the prey and no longer stalking as the predator? Good news for them, a new insurance policy is in place. Manager Jim Cornette has now aligned himself with the One Man Gang, and the Midnight Express are reaping the benefits early. One Man Gang To call One Man Gang intimidating would be an understatement. But perhaps it's also his position on the WCCW roster that is real understatement, as the One Man Gang has recently become WCCW Television champion after aligning with new manager Jim Cornette, and also played a critical role in ensuring Cornette's tag team became the new tag champs at the February Star Wars event. No matter what it is, one this is for certain, OMG is a force to be reckoned with and should never be taken lightly.</blockquote>
  12. Sorry if you already mentioned this, Togg, but are you going to make the 2 year mark data available for us to play around in? Would love to get that simmed data to play a game. Also, IDK how many CM Punks you want to start with but every bid form is for him
  13. <blockquote style=”background-color:#FFFFFF;color:black;border-style:solid;border-width:4px;border-color:#000000;max-width:1000px;”> Author's Note Just want to give a quick thanks again to everyone who has followed along for the ride so far, and many thanks as well to those who have participated in the prediction contest so far! I'm incredibly blessed to have made it three months into the story so far, and I have to say I'm just as excited to continue booking and writing as I was when I first started, if not even more invested. This diary has provided me the opportunity to watch a lot of old school wrestling, and hopefully present a sense of nostalgia not found often on these boards. I find myself still fascinated by the World Class territory and am still working my way through a lot of their old TV tapings and Star Wars events (a lot recently added on YouTube worth checking out). I can't believe I am already through the return of David Von Erich and now at the point where Jake has lost his briefcase and Gary Hart is now in control. Many new characters are emerging and new webs of complications continue to weave themselves through the members of the roster. I'm excited to see how everything shakes out. I do book ahead, mostly, but I must say a lot of what I write is put together on the spot and I'm becoming fascinated by sometimes having not much of a clue where a show will end up but somehow reaching a conclusion I am more than satisfied with as the author. With that said, I know it's been awhile since I've followed up with the third rendition of Wrestling Star Wars. A lot going on in my life that is holding up being able to sit down as frequently and churn out shows, but I have continued long term booking for the time being and am working to setting up an epic Parade of Champions event in May 1985, the go-home show for World Class. We can expect a conclusion to plenty of stories, all of which I have been working towards since the start of this diary. I am super excited to keep forging my way there and hope those reading continue to follow along. As I take a small break to recharge the batteries, I want to share a character update for the roster, to provide more biographical context to some of the characters, starting with the major babyfaces. I know many of these characters are not very familiar, so I hope something like this allows readers a better sense of the characters at play: who they are, what they were like, what their known for, and what has happened to them so far in our story. I hope this provides a bit of a recap for months January through March and a nice segway into the month of April! WCCW Babyfaces, April 1985 “The Yellow Rose of Texas” David Von Erich David Von Erich is the second-oldest son of Fritz Von Erich, owner and promoter of World Class Championship Wrestling. David is tall, standing at six feet and eight inches with long, dirty blonde hair, and seemingly never backs down from a fight. Despite his size, David moves fairly quick in the ring, and tends to also get up for big drop kicks and flying crossbodies at almost every opportunity. After unsuccessfully challenging Ric Flair for the NWA World Heavyweight championship, David went on excursion to Japan, until returning at the January 1985 Wrestling Star Wars event. Upon returning, David’s homecoming was almost tear-shedding, as the Texas-faithful were all happy to welcome back one of their own. Not so ready? “Gorgeous” Gino Hernandez, and his colleagues Chris Adams and Jake Roberts. Gino has held the NWA Texas Heavyweight title since June 1984, when David vacated it to leave for the Orient. But now, David is back, and he wants his belt too. He failed to win in his returning singles debut against Gino for the title at the February 1985 Star Wars event, thanks to interference at the hands of Gino’s tag team partner, Chris Adams. In attempts to convince Hernandez to give him another title shot, David was willing to bet if he couldn’t beat Gino, against Jake Roberts as well, alongside his brother Kerry, he didn’t deserve to challenge for the belt ever again. Unfortunately for the champ, David and Kerry were victorious, and now David has his sights set on another epic showdown with Gino Hernandez, as the upcoming Parade of Champions event to be held from the world famous Texas Stadium in May! “The Modern Day Warrior” Kerry Von Erich Kerry Von Erich is perhaps the most famous of all the Von Erich brothers, having already frequented challenges for the NWA World Heavyweight championship, including much lauded matches against the likes of Ric Flair and Harley Race. One likely reason for that may be both Kerry’s excellent working rate in the ring (he is typically regarded as the best worker of all his brothers), and his incredible physique. Since high school Kerry has had all of the girls lining up for autographs and many college scouts interested in his talents, but for Kerry, the only future education he has been interested in is in the ring against the world’s best professional wrestlers. Kerry is mighty and quick, and typically showcases his strength by lifting his opponents up high for body slams and knocking them out cold with waking discus punches. Known for his incredible amateur discus throw Texas state records, Kerry is a well- currently the NWA American Heavyweight champion, carrying on his father’s legacy of the belt. Kerry has been forming a legacy of his own, however, with perhaps the biggest highlight of his career coming on Christmas Day in 1982, when his challenge against Ric Flair in a steel cage match was interrupted by Terry Gordy of the Fabulous Freebirds slamming the cage door in the face of Kerry! This was after the Freebirds offered Kerry help to beat Flair, but Kerry refused, not interested in cheating his way to victory. This would spark the now famous Freebirds/Von Erich feud of 83/84, in which the Von Erichs would walk out on top, even despite the departure of brother David. Entering 1985, it may be just a matter of time before Kerry is on his way to another world’s title shot. But for now, he finds himself in the crosshairs of wicked forces in World Class wrestling, including the likes of Jake Roberts and Manager Gary Hart, both determined in their own right to destroy the Von Erichs and remove them from their position of power in professional wrestling. Kerry continues to carry the family name on his shoulders and works tirelessly to ensure the prosperity of the Von Erich clan in the face of all foes and forces. “The Cosmic Cowboy” Kevin Von Erich The oldest of the Von Erich brothers, Kevin Von Erich is certainly no slouch, known for his high-flying, action-packed moves, and with the boys, as one of the stiffest workers today. Despite his seniority, Kevin is not as high-profile of a star as his brothers David and Kerry, but is respected in his own right as an incredible athlete, pound-for-pound perhaps the best in the promotion. Kevin is also famous for wrestling barefoot, working every match with nothing on but taped ankles to ensure stability. And Kevin certainly needs it, considering his most favorite moves almost all involve leaping to the air and using his entire body as a weapon. Despite not holding all of the singles accolades his brothers David and Kerry have so far, Kevin is considered a premier tag team specialist, which certainly came in handy during his family’s feud with the Fabulous Freebirds. Since then, Kevin has stood up to all of those who stand in his way, no matter how much larger and taller his opponents may be. However, in February of 1985 on an edition of Championship Sports, Kevin was brutally attacked by the combination of Chris Adams and Hercules Hernandez, who held him down to the ground and used a wooden chair wrapped around the ankle of Kevin Von Erich to attack it, putting Kevin out of action for a whole month. But now, Kevin is making his return to competition, with revenge on the mind, starting with a post-match attack on both Chris and Hercules at the latest Star Wars event! What’s next for Kevin? Surely, his aspirations for vengeance are not satisfied yet. Billy Jack Haynes Voted PWI’s 1984 Most Improved Wrestler, Billy Jack Haynes joined World Class at the very tail end of 1984, and has since made a name for himself as a potential superstar of the future. He appears to have won the hearts of the Dallas, Texas faithful, but has he won the minds? It remains unclear if Billy Jack is a sure-fire title contender in the near future, having yet to foray with those in the title scenes. Instead, Billy Jack has found himself at odds with another World Class newcomer, Randy Savage. The issue came about when Billy Jack told Bill Mercer in a sit-down interview back in January that he didn’t find the two comparable, when asked how he likens himself to Savage. The latter took issue with that, and finally the two met each other in singles competition at the most recent Star Wars event. While Savage would win their first singles encounter through questionable means, there’s no question that the sky is the limit for Billy Jack if he can continue to keep up with his world class physique (no pun intended) and continue to show improvement in the ring. Bobby Fulton One half of The Fantastics, Bobby Fulton has emerged as perhaps a new shining star in the Texas territory. Fulton’s time as one of the most popular tag teams in Texas has served him well, having not only soared in popularity with the fans, but also showing significant improvement in the ring as well. He has come across more and more as the leader of The Fantastics, alongside his tag team partner Tommy Rogers, and may be best known for his hot tag run-ins known for igniting the Dallas Sportatorium crowd. One thing not going for Bobby is his size, considerably shorter than many of his colleagues. But despite his size, Bobby definitely has plenty of fight in him and is never afraid to back down from a fight. The Fantastics began the year as NWA American Tag Team champions, and were able to hold off the likes of The Midnight Express from initially taking the belts. But it was interference on the part of One Man Gang, new client for the Midnights manager, Jim Cornette, as the February Star Wars that cost them their tag titles. Now, the Fantastics are on the chase to get their titles back, before a growing tag team division provides for another team to take what they feel are rightfully theirs. Whether or not The Fantastics can become kings of the hill again, it will certainly be interesting to see if Bobby Fulton eventually moves on from his tag team position on the card and perhaps on to bigger and better things in singles competition… Tommy Rogers The other half of The Fantastics, Tommy Rogers is certainly popular with the fans as well, and can perhaps also be known for some slick in-ring work, similar to his partner. On the flip side, Rogers is known particularly well for his selling, as he is frequently on the losing end of many double teams during their matches. This usually leads to the hot tag that sends Bobby Fulton in, but that’s not to say Rogers doesn’t sometimes have his moments as well. While Fulton tends to get more into the fisticuffs with his opponents, Rogers prefers more coordinated and strategic moves, including working many of his opponents to the ground and on the mat. Jerry Blackwell Another big recent addition to the World Class roster is Jerry Blackwell, the 400+ lbs. wrestler who is known for his impressive athletics relative to his physical size. Blackwell is also known as a hard working wrestler, a man who stands by his word and will fight hard to the end. He's also one not to take any funny business from anyone else on the roster, and Chris Adams most recently learned his lesson after putting his hands on Blackwell at the February Star Wars event. Blackwell hasn't forgotten shoving Adams out of the ring, and neither has Adams, with both nearly coming to blow ahead of the March Star Wars event and likely to collide soon enough as tensions continue to rise. Blackwell's stock in World Class continues to rise as well, as he works hard to prove himself in a very competitive territory. Mike Von Erich The most recent of the Von Erich brothers to make his debut, Mike Von Erich has yet to achieve the massive popularity of his older brothers, but continues to consistently prove himself in the World Class circuit and reguarly makes appearances alongside his brothers. Mike is noticeably of less impressive shape and size when compared to his siblings, a reality Mike will have to battle his entire career. However, Mike's story could truly be one of a real underdog overcoming all of the shadows and expectations surrounding him. For now, that story seems a long ways away, but in the meantime, Mike continues to wrestle and has taken on a bit of a high-flying style reminiscent of his brother Kevin. Brian Adias Best friend of Kerry Von Erich, Brian Adias has been around the Von Erich ranch since he was a youngin'. Now, it's only right Brian continues to fight alongside the Von Erich siblings in the wrestling ring, taking years of experience fighting together on the playground and on the sports field. A homegrown talent of Denton County, Adias is almost as popular as the Von Erich's themselves, no small credit to his close association with the family. In the ring, Adias continues to try to prove himself, but must break out of his consistent reliance on headlocks and other submission holds to carry himself through matches. Adias made a surprise return back to World Class earlier this year, and has thrown himself head first into the trials and tribulations of his childhood friends. Adias, a faithful ally of the Von Erichs, can always be trusted and almost considered a proxy Von Erich brother at times.</blockquote>

  17. <blockquote style=”background-color:#FFFFFF;color:black;border-style:solid;border-width:4px;border-color:#000000;max-width:1000px;”> WCCW March Star Wars 1985 Week 4, March 1985 Reunion Arena, Dallas, TX <iframe width="325" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/EVp3B9gVhmM" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> Davey Boy Smith versus Matt Borne In a decent opening match, Davey Boy Smith defeated Matt Borne in 5:43 by pinfall with a Running Powerslam. The former entered the ring sporting a Union Jack flag on a caped-jacket, drawing comparison to the old entrances of another fellow English-native, Chris Adams. While his in-ring work is a bit different than Adams, Davey Boy continues to draw solid reactions from the Texas faithful, as he made good work of trailer park trash Matt Borne! A big singles win on a big stage for Davey Boy further advances his rank in the World Class territory. WCCW Television Championship One Man Gang © versus Iceman King Parsons In a decent match, One Man Gang © defeated Iceman King Parsons in 7:41 by pinfall with a 747 Splash after Jim Cornette interfered. While good vibes carried over from the opening match to a veteran babyface of the Texas territory, Iceman Parsons, all of his boogie-woogie wasn’t enough to overcome the odds against a big man like OMG, and the dirty tactics of his manager. Cornette played a vital role in this one, perhaps saving his client from ultimate defeat late in the match, giving One Man Gang defence number two of the WCCW Television title. Brian Adias and Mike Von Erich versus The Fabulous Ones In a decent match, Brian Adias and Mike Von Erich defeated The Fabulous Ones in 7:23 when Mike Von Erich pinned Steve Keirn with a flying crossbody. While the heels from Memphis haven’t quite found the success they were looking for when taking a shot down in Dallas, the impromptu duo of Brian and Mike continues to grow in favor, earning another respected victory at tonight’s Star Wars. The combination of Brian’s solid ground game with Mike’s fast-moving attacks (shades of his brother, Kevin) have served them well, with Mike consistently playing the hero on the hot tags. His flying crossbodies are becoming some of the best in the business, and this time it’s too much for Keirn and his partner to overcome! Jerry Blackwell versus Rick Rude In a decent match, Jerry Blackwell defeated Rick Rude in 9:25 by pinfall after a dropkick. The 474 lbs. meatball of a man’s popularity continues to skyrocket in the Mid-South area, having nearly doubled since debuting in Texas. Blackwell attitude and slight Southern-drawl appeals to the blue collar workers in the Dallas-Ft. Worth region, with a rough-and-tough persona about him, having shown no fear since stepping into a World Class ring. On the other side, Rick Rude appeals to almost nobody in the Reunion Arena crowd, and they let him know it. In fact, Rude continues to embody everything the local fans hate about some people in society… arrogant, narcissistic, vain… Rick Rude is all of that and more. And with Rude’s physique, he is able to stand up to the nearly immovable forces of Jerry Blackwell, giving him a real run for his money but unfortunately unable to cheat his way to a victory in the end. Blackwell would reverse a dirty attack by Rude, able to avoid disaster and nail Rude with a monsterous dropkick as he came back off the ropes! The Fantastics versus The Long Riders In a good match, The Long Riders defeated The Fantastics in 13:32 when Scott Irwin submitted Tommy Rogers after blatantly cheating. The territory’s favorite tag team, a combination of Bobby Fulton and partner Rogers, who recently lost the NWA American Tag Team titles. This time, a new challenge, yet old for many in the crowd. Returning from their stint as the NWA National Tag Team champions, The Long Riders returned to Reunion Arena for the first time in half a year. Finding themselves on a similar quest of tag team title gold as their opponents tonight, the rough and tough duo of the Irwin brothers showed the Fantastic-faithful just why they are so feared across all of the nation. The Fantastics, however, wouldn’t go down easy, but Irwin’s well-timed shot to the family jewels of Tommy Rogers was all they needed to earn the victory and perhaps set the Fantastics back yet another step! The Fantastics were visibly displeased after the match, petitioning to the officials, but it was to no avail. Billy Jack Haynes versus Randy Savage In a good match that got the crowd hotter, Randy Savage defeated Billy Jack Haynes in 15:38 when Billy Jack Haynes submitted Randy Savage in a Full Nelson Lock… only for referee Rick Hazard to recover from being knocked unconscious temporarily and demand a reversal of the decision! The crowd was hot from the get-go for this match, one between two of the hottest rising stars in World Class wrestling. The two put on a solid performance, highlighted by Randy showcasing some of his technical prowess in attempts to one-up Billy Jack in the ring. However, Haynes was able to rely on much of his powerhouse physique to physically punish the smaller Savage when he was able to get his hands firmly on him. While some of the crowd seemed to support Randy, the overwhelming majority favored the talents of one Billy Jack, who played up to the crowd’s demeanor. Savage, on the other hand, relished in the negativity he received from all four sides of the ring. For Savage, as well, another cheap victory over Billy Jack, a man he is confident he is better than, any day of the week. Albeit, Savage has yet to prove it in true fashion. Instead, he relies this time on the referee convincing his fellow officials that Billy Jack should be disqualified. With the action having ceased, Haynes is watching over the proceedings, and begins to interject in protest! The officials aren’t having it, and after Billy Jack puts his hands on Rick Hazard, he immediately calls for the bells and disqualifies Haynes! The Dallas crowd can’t believe it! Savage is declared the winner and leaves Reunion Arena with another big, undeserved, smile on his face. NWA American Tag Team Championship The Midnight Express © versus Rock N’ Roll Express In a good match that got the crowd hotter, The Midnight Express © defeated the Rock N' Roll Express in 17:17 when Bobby Eaton pinned Robert Gibson with The Rocket Launcher following interference from Bill and Scott Irwin, the Long Riders! Not only would the Long Riders spoil the hopes of the Dallas audience in their earlier match against the former tag champs, but now they are interfering in the results of the actual tag team title match as well! After all was said and done, Jim Cornette looked a bit shocked by what had happened, as though he had no idea the Long Riders would even attempt something of the sort. But it wasn’t all fun and games for Cornette, who would end up in the ring across from the Long Riders, who proceeded to threaten the tag champs as well! The fans egged on the Irwin brothers to get into some action with the Midnights, but Cornette convinced his men to stand down and take on this fight another day. Needless to say, the Long Riders were left standing as though they were soon enough on top of the tag team division in a very short amount of time. The Midnight Express make defence number one of the NWA American Tag Team titles. Chris Adams versus Hercules Hernandez In a good match, Chris Adams defeated Hercules Hernandez in 14:01 by pinfall with a Superkick following botched interference by Gary Hart! That’s right! The so-called, “Manager of Champions” tried to get his hands on Adams during his new client’s big time match against his former client. Revenge was on the mind of Hart, who was trash-talking Adams the entire time they were out with each other inside and around the ring! The fans seemed 100% on-board with Chris Adams in this one, showing signs of when Adams were first a babyface when he joined World Class, before turning on the Von Erichs and joining forces with his current tag team partner. Perhaps that’s just how despised Gary Hart is amongst the World Class faithful, willing to throw their support behind another one of Texas’ most hated heels. For Chris Adams, he was willing to throw all of his might into his offense against Hercules, who vastly other powered him. Adams moved as quick as he could to stay a step ahead of Hercules, but for those who had seen Hernandez in action, he is quick too, despite his size. There was no shortage of punishment dished out to Adams, as Hercules was out to prove himself to his new manager. No better opportunity to do so than against his former client. Hart shouted instructions from ringside, coaching Hernandez through various sequences, most of which resulting in Hercules maintaining the upper-hand. But simply coaching wouldn’t be enough for Hart. He had to get blood on his hands, and it had to be Chris Adams’ blood. So, in coordinated efforts with his new client, Hart ascended to the apron and attempted to attack “The Gentleman” with Japanese kendo stick, but instead Adams ducked his swing and the stick landed on the head of Hercules! Hernandez took to the mat, downed and out, and would attempt to recover with one final go at it, only to walk straight into a big Superkick from Adams to secure the victory! Once the official called it, Hart threw a tantrum on the outside, while Adams forced Hercules out of the ring and taunted both from the inside. For Adams, sweet reinforcement that he had perhaps made the right choice finally leaving his long-time manager, and for Gary Hart, perhaps a giant disruption to his master plan of one day managing a world champion... Just when we thought it was over, out runs the returning Kevin Von Erich! He’s running full-steam ahead towards the outside and pummels Hercules Hernandez with a bunch of unexpected blows to the head! Kevin’s moving as if his shorts are on fire, beating up Hercules so bad he sends him flying to the floor! Gary Hart can’t believe it, and pleads for Kevin not to attack him, but as Kevin slowly approaches Hart with his fist cocked-n-loaded, Chris Adams grabs his attention from inside the ring! Adams eggs Kevin on, challenging him to get in the ring and “get what was coming to him”. Kevin didn’t think twice about it, overcoming a series of stomps as soon as he slid in, but soon over powering Chris with an overwhelming desire for revenge since Chris and Hercules injured his ankle last month on Championship Sports! The fans light up as Kevin counters Adams with a series of fists, and proceeds to throw him off the ropes right into a huge flying crossbody! But Kevin isn’t done there! Adams stumbles into a corner, and here comes Kevin, flying from almost across the ring with another crossbody attack in the corner! Adams falls towards the middle of the ring, and “The Cosmic Cowboy” jumps on the top rope, raising his arms to the fans excitement! And there he goes! Kevin leaps into the air to deliver a monstrous flying slam to set the crowd on fire! There’s no question about it now, Kevin’s ankle is healed and he looks as good as ever! Just as Kevin is ready to deliver even more punishment to Adams, officials hit the ring and break up the fight, as Hart and Hercules slowly make their way to the back, perhaps, planning their next move... Lumberjack Ultimatum Match David and Kerry Von Erich versus Gino Hernandez and Jake Roberts In a bout that had superb wrestling and great heat, David and Kerry Von Erich defeated Gino Hernandez and Jake Roberts in 21:48 when David Von Erich submitted Gino Hernandez with the Iron Claw! With the ultimatum of a lifetime at stake, all four men gave it their all in this one. Gino, fighting off another Texas title shot for David, and Jake, trying to ensure he doesn’t have to put his coveted secret briefcase on the line in a singles match against Kerry. For the Von Erichs, however, it felt like this match was worth even more than what was on-the-line for them, including Kerry committing to never wrestling in another World Class match again if he were to walk away a loser. Jake “The Snake” Roberts was determined to make this happen, working Kerry the majority of the match and able to outsmart the young vet at various points in time, giving the World Class faithful more than enough anxiety. On the outside, the rest of the World Class roster didn’t hold back on their lumberjack responsibilities, beating down both Kerry and Jake when either were sent tumbling to the outside. On the opposite end, David looked poised and in control when fighting Gino, who seemed like he wanted nothing to do with facing off against David, especially after a narrow call last month. But for David, knowing he may never be able to challenge for his most prized wrestling belt ever again, he pulled a little something extra out to ensure victory. Gino found himself sacrificed to the wolves on the outside multiple times, helping David’s case, many of the babyfaces eager to get their hands on the Texas title belt holder. The lumberjacks on the outside were able to keep things in order, that is, however, until things got a little dicey in the finish involving David, Gino, and referee David Manning. The head official for this one was knocked out unceremoniously, giving Gino enough time to do what he could to mount some sort of opposition to the inevitable application of the world famous Iron Claw! But when secondary official Rick Hazard jumped in to replace Manning, this spoiled Gino’s plans of dirtying his way through the end. Instead, “The Yellow Rose of Texas”, David Von Erich, was able to clinch on the claw and secure the win for him and his brother! As the bell rang, Jake looked distraught while the entire audience clammered for their heroes! It was a close call for the homegrown superstars, but even against one of their toughest challenges yet, they were able to overcome the forces of greed and evil to secure the win and another chance soon at redemption! As the fans celebrates, the Von Erichs embrace in the ring and the heels are furious! Gino Hernandez is recovering to the side, while Jake Roberts jumps to the outside and immediately grabs his briefcase! He’s yelling at the fans along the way, yelling at the officials… yelling at anyone and anything! He makes his way through the clutter of other roster members, who are all discussing amongst themselves what just happened, some trying to move out of Jake’s way, others perhaps not so concerned. Clutching the briefcase, Jake is now trying to make his way out of the scene, while the Texas fans close to him are letting him have it! But then, all of the sudden… Hercules Hernandez jumps on camera with a mighty double axe handle to the back of Jake Roberts’ head! He drops the briefcase and Hercules proceeds to hurl rights and lefts to the head and back of Roberts! Those around them don’t knw what to do! Do they break up this fight! Or let things take its course? That’s right when Chris Adams gets involved and tries to breakaway Hercules from Jake… but he’s unsuccessful when Jerry Blackwell pummels Adams from behind and they start going at it! The fans notice things are getting out of hand now, especially when The Midnight Express run from across the other side and jump The Fantastics! It really gets out of hand when Kerry Von Erich exits the ring to help save the Fantastics, but he’s stopped by One Man Gang! Kerry takes a few blows from the WCCW Television champion, but a new face appears to save Kerry from the cheapshots, Davey Boy Smith! Followed behind by his partner Owen Hart, Davey Boy makes sure OMG can’t get anymore shots on Kerry, and gets the TV champ isolated and beaten down until he runs away! The fans keep cheering as the situation continues to unwind and get out of control! The timekeeper starts ringing the bell as EVERYBODY is now fighting! Twenty-plus men are attacking one another all around the ring, the camera has a hard time keeping up with the action! Shots of Randy Savage and Billy Jack Haynes brawling once more are caught candidly, while the camera man tries to get some highlights of Kevin Von Erich now attacking Chris Adams! The latter’s partner, Gino Hernandez, is trying to stay out of things, while other heels attack David Von Erich who's trying to make his way over to the Texas champ. But perhaps most importantly, Jake Roberts and Hercules Hernandez are still battling it out, and we see the briefcase is getting flung around the outside. All of the sudden, midcarder Kelly Kiniski picks up the briefcase and appears to make an attempt to escape with it! He’s quickly knocked down by Mike Von Erich, who forces him to drop the briefcase, while Brian Adias is close by to pick it up! Adias seems to understand what’s happening in the moment, and also tries to escape but he’s cut off by Gino Hernandez, who kicks him in the gut and clobbers him over the top, forcing the briefcase to the ground! Now, Gino picks it up! The fans are losing their minds as Gino is now holding the briefcase close to his chest and tries to flee the scene! And just when Gino thinks he’s free and clear, from across the aisleway, Hercules Hernandez comes from out of nowhere once more and shoulder tackles him with serious force! The briefcase goes flying in the air, and there’s Gary Hart! He grabs the briefcase and picks it up, then looks at his client Hercules and urges him to escape with him! Hercules stands over Gino before acknowledging his manager and the two run through the curtains and to the back! A few moments later, Jake Roberts is on the scene and runs through the curtains, chasing down Gary Hart with his two-hundred fifty thousand dollar briefcase! Bill Mercer continues going wild on commentary, and can’t believe what he’s just seen!

style="margin-left:25px;">I've just taken the time to get caught up on this after falling a little behind. Just fantastic work all around OGpistolpete. Show after show, you seem to effortlessly capture the unique vibe of WCCW with your writing style.</div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> The segment with Gino Hernandez/Jake Roberts in the steakhouse on the last show was a real highlight. You write both characters so well. I love the dynamic between the pair.</div></div></div></div></div></blockquote><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="color:#bd0000;"><strong>Thanks for the kind words and taking the time to catch-up where you left off!</strong></span></div></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> I really try to convey a particular feeling with most of my angles and interviews, so glad to hear they are being received well! I have to say though, can the dynamic between Gino and Jake last? Or will Jake's irratic behavior eventually screw him over? I hope you keep reading to find out what's gonna happen next!</div></div></div></div><p></blockquote></p></div><p></p>
